Trump was asked if he thinks President Putin will listen to him after he previously condemned Russia's overnight attack on Ukraine.
"Yes, yes," Trump replied.
He added that he needs to get Zelenskyy and Putin to the negotiating table, and stressed that "they both want peace."
The American leader added that there is a lot of "hatred, bad blood and disgust" between Russia and Ukraine.
The day before, Trump accused Zelenskyy of damaging peace talks by not recognizing Russian control over Crimea.
